Charity Law
Del Canto Chambers has significant expertise in Charity Law, helping our charity clients navigate the unique legal, tax and regulatory requirements of the charity sector. We offer advice to Foundations, Non-Governmental Organizations and Charities in Europe and the UK, as well as to the companies and private individuals involved.
Legal Advice for Charities in Europe and the UK
Legal advice for charities is a very specialized area of law as charities face a unique range of legal, regulatory, governance and tax issues. We represent foundations, charities and non-profit organizations, either with a common or special tax regime, across all areas, including religious entities.
Foundations provide certain tax benefits that make them a popular choice when thinking about setting up a non-profit organization. We assist with the design and formation of foundations, tax and legal implications ensuring its correct operation and compliance with all formal requirements. Some companies might suggest collaborating with non-Government organizations (NGOs), to optimise existing tax incentives.
Areas we can provide legal and tax assistance to charities and non-profit organizations in the UK and Europe include:
- Identifying the best legal structure and formation
- Constitution, registration and closing down of charities and European foundations
- Advising on legal and tax not-for-profit regimes in the UK and Europe
- Providing guidance on operations and governance to trustees and management
- Helping to liaise with key regulators and ensure compliance
